Authorized Version

But Mr. Kirkpatrick has a backup plan — the Authorized Version, better known as the King James Bible.

We may imagine him as a stuffed robe-and-crown who gives a thumbs-up to the Authorized Version and fades into muffled bedchambers, but James was a serious man of letters.

At the close of his life he was engaged upon his edition of the Authorized Version of the Bible for his series of Tudor Translations.

There is another correction of the Authorized Version that needs to be made.

We find that this volume of little pamphlets is called the “Authorized Version” of the New Testament.
